Demon Magic Level 2 

Coerce

Spell level:               Demon 2

Magic Points:         3

Range:                     6 yards

Duration:              One summoning

Ingredients:            A whip fashioned from a demon's hide

This ritual is similar in general nature to the Level 1 spell Persuade. Coerce; however, will instil a fear of the demonologist in the creature summoned in order to ensure its loyalty. Note that this is a feeling of unease and trepidation rather than a psychological reaction. In game terms the demon's fear will result in -2 being subtracted from the result on the faithfulness Test roll, but should this be failed +1 will be added to the Vengefulness Test roll. For Lesser Demons the Faithfulness Test will still only be adjusted by -1. The demon may both fear and respect the summoner or fear and hate him as

a result of the use of this ritual.

These threats are not backed up by any real power, merely an illusionary suggestion conveyed through the ritual. It will not fool a Greater Demon or Demon Prince. Should a foolish mortal attempt to subject one of these entities to such ignominy then they are in big trouble to say the least.

Contact Demonic Power

Spell level:               Demon 2

Magic Points:         15

Range:                     6 yards

Duration:                               See below

Ingredients:            The sacrifice of a number of humanoids equal to the chaos power's sacred number with a warpstone bladed dagger.

This ritual will summon a manifestation of the desired chaos power or its representative, the object being to forge an allegiance between the Demonologist and that Chaos power. The sheer unearthly hideousness of this servitor will cause an immediate terror test to be taken, and the gaining of

D6 Insanity points whatever the outcome. No control roll can be made and the caster has no protection from whatever appears in response to the summoning. The demonologist must rely on his wits and ability to bargain. If the servitor is not impressed with the caster's ability and what he has to offer, he will be either killed on the spot or taken back to the Realm of chaos

To work as a slave for all eternity. Either way the demonologist is effectively removed from the game. Note that failing the terror test and collapsing in a screaming heap will generally count as being "unimpressive."

If the caster can present himself as a suitable candidate, he will become a champion of the Chaos power in question. Whatever the outcome, this is not a spell recommended for PC use in a normal campaign.
